[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1392515, member: 101755"] This being my first 6.5x284...do they normally have a long throat? I bought a package deal. Dies, Lapua brass and a factory Savage pull off barrel. I loaded some ammo for it last week and the bullet don't seat very deep if I stay close to the lands. Even the spec on COL is long...most everything I load the boat tail is normally inside below the neck of the brass, but not so with 140gr HPBT match bullets. These are the Midway USA factory seconds. I bought two pounds of R-26 overy the weekend but going to start off with known powder charges to see what the bareel can do. So I've loaded H4831sc and Hybrid 100V. I was told the barrel has around 50 shots down the tube so I make try a short break session first to make sure the barrel is ready to go. [/QUOTE]
